5:40 pm: Problem with credit card payments
Our online credit card payment service was unavailable between 3:00 pm and 5:30 today as our bank was experiencing some technical difficulties.
They have fixed the problem and we will be doing all we can to ensure that it does not happen again. We apologise for the inconvenience.
International Buyers
As part of our continued efforts to make Trade Me a safe place for Kiwis to buy and sell, from the 1st of August members based outside of New Zealand and Australia will no longer be allowed to purchase items on Trade Me.

Improvements to Buyer Email
Sellers can now choose to automate their Buyer Emails on a listing-by-listing basis. If selected when listing an auction and your item is sold successfully, the "buyer email" will automatically be sent to the winner.
If you're a seller and you don't have your Buyer Email set up, do it today!
Category changes
We have made a number of category changes across the site. If your item was listed in any of the categories that have been removed, you will be prompted to choose a different category when relisting. All of the other auction details including your photo will be carried over. If you have any feedback, please post on the message board.
